Open Cast Explodes

Leeds EF! are setting up a camp on a proposed opencast site near Leeds, involving a camp and treehouses, bang in the middle of a site, but quite possibly with no danger of eviction! They especially need people experienced in treehouse building, if possible with climbing equipment. If anyone can help, however temporarily, contact 0113 262 9365.

Darlington EF! need help setting up a tree village in Chopwell Wood, Green Chopwell, nr. Gateshead. There is strong local opposition to this site being open casted, particularly since Durham Coalfield was closed due to there being, "no demand for coal". The National Union of Miners oppose the mine. Red squirrel, Scottish Wildcat (or Geordie Tabby as it is locally known!) and badger sets are under threat. Contact Hugh 01325 356586 or Phil 01207 562150.
